In honor of Thanksgiving, I would like to share with you the adventures of the dogs who accompanied the Pilgrims to Plymouth Plantation. Among the 100 passengers and 30 crew members on the Mayflower there were at least two dogs. Unfortunately William Bradford is silent on the contributions of dogs to the new colony in his […]
Dogs, you may have noticed a few odd looking characters lurking around your neighborhood these past few days. Don’t panic! In the coming nights these strange looking ghouls, goblins, witches, princesses and superheroes will be knocking on YOUR door. But it’s ok! It’s Halloween! I know this goes against your instincts to guard your home […]
Ssshh, I’m hiding from Mom as she gets our ridiculous Halloween costumes ready for a weekend filled with embarassing photos, culminating in being publicly humiliated at the Portsmouth Halloween Parade! So while I hide, please enjoy my frightening version of Edgar Allan Poe’s The Raven. Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, this is […]
Today is Boss Appreciation Day. However, I’ve been awake for a few hours now, and Mom, Dad and Asa have yet to do anything to mark this special holiday. Therefore as their lovable boss, I would like to take this time to remind them, why they should appreciate me today and every day. After all […]

Why extend my torture by randomly shooting them off days ahead of schedule? As far as I can tell no other holiday is celebrated […]

For Flashback Friday, I’d like to share with you my harrowing tale from 2016 of how I faced the squeaky toy avenger of death…and showed him who’s boss! I looked Death in the eyes…unblinking plastic eyes…and survived! Recently Mom told me that they were taking us to the mall for photos with the Easter Bunny. […]
Ruh! Roh! Mom is searching for the bunny ears. It must be that time of year again when dog owners lose their minds. Don’t they know it is humiliating to dress us up as rabbits? After all, our innate wolf instincts clearly tell us we should be hunting rabbits, not masquerading as them! Luckily for […]
